"How It's Gonna Be"
[VERSE 1]
IT'S HIS WAY OF LIVIN'
WHO AM I TO TELL HIM
THAT WHAT HE'S DOIN' JUST AIN'T RIGHT
STANDING ON THE CORNER HUSTLIN'
ALL DAY GAMBLIN' UNDER STREET LIGHTS
EVEN THOUGH HE'S THUGGIN'
I LOVE HIM
AND I WANT HIM IN MY LIFE
[CHORUS]
NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY
I'M GONNA LOVE HIM ANYWAY
CAUSE HE DOES A LOT FOR ME
AND THAT IS WHY I'M GONNA BE
A LOVER, A FRIEND, A SOLDIER, TIL THE END
AND THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA BE
[VERSE 2]
MOTHER AND MY FATHER DON'T UNDERSTAND ME
THEY THINK I MESSED UP MY LIFE
BUT I DON'T AGREE
THEY NEED TO MIND THEIR BUSINESS CAUSE IT'S MY LIFE
AND EVEN THOUGH HE'S THUGGIN'
I LOVE HIM (SHE LOVES HIM)
AND I WANT HIM IN MY LIFE, LIFE AGAIN
[CHORUS]
[BRIDGE]
SO WHAT YOU SAYIN, I CAN'T LOVE HIM
CAUSE HE'S A HUSTLER OUT HERE THUGGIN'
I KNOW YOU'RE WAITIN', SITTIN' AROUND HOPIN'
THAT 5-O COME AND TAKE HIM AWAY
WELL EVEN IF THEY DO
I'LL REMAIN TRUE TO LOVE HIM
IN THE END
SAID I'LL BE A LOVER, A FRIEND, A SOLDIER, TIL THE END
AND THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA BE
[CHORUS 2X AND FADE]
